ENGINES WITHOUT IVECO MOTORS

INSTRUMENT PANEL

If the engines are fitted with Iveco Motors instrument panels (optional), the engine is stopped by pressing the stop button (6) or by turning the starter key to "A".

If the engines are not fitted with an Iveco Motors instrument panel,
the starting instructions given previously may vary according to the
type of control panel fitted to the machine on which the engine is installed (see the instructions supplied by the machine's manufacturer).

WATER PRE-HEATING
(electric 220 V, single-phase - optional)
This device, supplied on request, is provided to aid starting at low
temperatures or in circumstances where an immediate supply of
power is required. It incorporates a thermostat which cuts off the
supply when the set temperature is reached.

GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR STARTING

(valid for all engines)
Release the starter control as soon as the engine starts so as not to
damage the engine and starter motor.
Remember that it is not efficient, in terms of reaching the operating
temperatures, to keep the engine idling.
After about 1 minute start to use the engine but avoid using it at high
output.

WARNING!
Always check that the equipment is properly earthed.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

1. Before stopping the engine, let it idle for a few minutes with no
load; this allows a uniform reduction in the water and oil temperature, avoiding serious damage to the engine caused by thermal shock.
2. The engine is stopped as follows:
- de-energise the stop solenoid incorporated in the pump.

11

PRECAUTION FOR NORMAL OPERATION OF

THE ENGINE

oil in the lubrication system, follow the instructions given in the paragraph "Checks and maintenance".

- Increasing engine speed from idling to full speed and viceversa

must be achieved gradually in order to ensure perfect combustion
and trouble-free operation of all the engine components.
- The speed/power values in engine use must conform to the specifications given in the technical/commercial documentation.
- During engine operation, monitor the following points:

Fuel system - Avoid working with the fuel tank at minimum reserve levels so as to prevent the formation of condensation and failure of the system due to intake of air, which causes the engine to
stop
Attention!

Engine cooling system - Check that the water temperature is

When filling up with fuel be particularly careful that the

solid or liquid pollutants do not enter the tank with the
fuel. Do not smoke or use naked flames.

kept within the maximum permitted values as specified in the table

"Main regulation and repair data". If the water temperature is excessive, check the cause consulting the table "Engine fault diagnosis".
When topping up the engine coolant, follow the instructions given in
the paragraph "Checks and maintenance".

Intake and exhaust system - Check regularly that the air in-

take system is clean. The maintenance intervals change according to

the working conditions. In particularly dusty environments more regular cleaning is required; follow the instructions set out in the paragraph "Checks and maintenance".

Attention!
Never open the water filler plug when the engine is hot.
The cooling system is pressurised and the hot liquid will
be expelled violently if the pressure is released too violently, causing
burns.

Attention!
Visually inspect that the exhaust system is not blocked or
damaged so as to prevent dangerous fumes.

Lubrication system - Check that the oil pressure, with the engine hot and operating at normal speed, falls within the limits indicated in the table "Main regulation and repair data". If the oil pressure
does not correspond to the values indicated check the cause for this
by consulting the table "Engine fault diagnosis". When topping up the
12

Electrical starter system - Check the battery state of charge

regularly, particularly during the winter months.

When topping up the electrolyte level in the batteries, follow the instructions set out in the paragraph "Checks and maintenance".

Attention!
Do not smoke or bring naked flames in the vicinity of the
batteries to avoid explosions.

RUNNING IN (50 hours)

Avoid using the engine for long periods, at high output.
After the running-in period remember to carry out the operations
indicated in the paragraph "Checks and Maintenance".

13

CHECKS AND MAINTENANCE

- Use the protective helmet if working in an area with suspended

loads or with installations at head height.
- Always wear safety shoes and overalls.
- Use protective cream for the hands.
- Always change out of wet overalls.

INTRODUCTION
The checks indicated in this section can be carried out either by
the workshop or by the machine user.
The routine maintenance operations, identified by the key
symbol, must be carried out by qualified personnel who have the appropriate equipment and protections.
The non-routine maintenance operations identified by
the spanner symbol, given their particular nature, must be carried
out by authorised workshops equipped with appropriate equipment
and with the proper technical information.

Attention!
Avoid carrying out maintenance when there is live voltage;
always check that the equipment is properly earthed.
During regulation operations make sure that you have dry hands
and feet and use insulating platforms.

DURING MAINTENANCE

- Never carry out repairs with which you are unfamiliar. Always follow the instructions and, if these are not available, contact the supplier or qualified personnel as described above.
- Always keep the engine clean, eliminating oil, diesel and/or coolant
stains.
- Place dirty rags inside flameproof containers.
- Do not leave rags on the engine.
- Use suitable secure containers for used oil.
- When you start an engine after a repair, take steps to stop the intake of air in case of over-rewing on starting.

- Never wear loose clothing, rings, bracelets and/or chains when

working next to engines or moving parts.
- Use protective gloves and goggles:
. when topping up batteries with acid
. when topping up with inhibitors or anti-freeze
. when changing or topping up the lubricating oil (hot engine oil can
cause burns when it is drained. Let it cool down to under 50C).

ROUTINE CHECKS
ENGINE OIL LEVEL CHECK
Carry out the check with the engine off, cold and with the machine
on the level.
Check that the oil level falls between the "Min" and "Max" limits
etched on the dipstick. If necessary, top up through the oil filler, after
turning the cap anti-clockwise.

WARNING
The level must never exceed the "Max" mark etched on
the dipstick. After the check, reposition the dipstick correctly and fully tighten the filler cap, turning it clockwise as far as it
will go. It is a must that the oil level be maintained between the
Min. and the Max. during the operation, especially during long operations.

RADIATOR WATER LEVEL CHECK

Carry out the check with the engine off and cold.
Remove the radiator water filler cap by turning it anti-clockwise and
inspect the water level.
The level must never exceed two thirds of the height of the reservoir
to allow for an increase in volume when the engine is hot.
If necessary, top up bearing in mind that overfilling may, during engine operation, result in excess water being expelled from the drain
pipe or pressure relief valve.

16

To top up, use a mix of clean water and anti-freeze/corrosion inhibitor of the type described in the "Capacities" table.
During the winter months, check that there is the correct percentage of anti-freeze to prevent the engine being damaged by ice.
Different water level check procedures may be required depending
on the various cooling system configurations of the machine on which the engine is installed.

Attention!
Never open the water filler cap when the engine is hot.
The cooling system is pressurised and the hot fluid will
spurt out if the pressure is released too quickly, causing burns.

AIR CLEANER CONDITION CHECK

As previously indicated in the paragraph "Before starting", if the air
cleaner requires cleaning, proceed as follows:
- stop the engine and leave to cool
- lift the cleaner cover A turning the wing nut B anti-clockwise
- turn the retaining nut D anti-clockwise and take out the external
cartridge C, making sure that no dust gets into the hose.
Pay attention to the following advice when working on the cartridge:
- never strike the cartridge with tools
- clean the cartridge with dry compressed air working from the inside outwards from the inside (the pressure must not exceed 2 bar
so as not to damage the cartridge);
- check the condition of the cartridge before removing it, using a
lamp to light up the inside;
17

Change the cartridge if it has any tears or holes;

- check that the seal on the base of the cartridge is in good condition.
Some air cleaners are fitted with a safety cartridge (optional); this
cartridge (E) must never be cleaned but changed every 3 changes of
the external cartridge.
To refit, reverse the dismantling operations, checking that the cartridge is housed correctly in its seat.

WARNING
If the cartridge is not properly fitted, unfiltered air could
enter the engine and cause serious damage. Where possible, have the above operations carried out by qualified personnel.
After the work on the cartridge has been completed, the mechanical
clogging indicator (see figure opposite) must be put back into service by pressing the special button located at the top of the indicator.
The electrical indicator does not require this operation.

18

RADIATOR/INTERCOOLER RESTRICTION CHECK

(AIR/AIR)
Check that the air input surfaces in the radiators are free of dirt
(dust, mud, straw etc.) and clean them straightaway using compressed air/steam.
The use of these cleaning methods means that suitable protection
must be worn on the hands, face and eyes.

BATTERY ELECTROLYTE LEVEL CHECK

With the batteries out of service and cold, check that the electrolyte
level falls between the "Max" and "Min" limits; if the level is below the
minimum, top up with distilled water.
During the summer months, check the level more frequently.
If the engine is unused, check the electrolyte monthly and, if the battery needs to be recharged, consult a specialist workshop.
Also check that the terminals and clamps are clean, tightened and
protected with vaseline.

Attention!
The batteries contain highly corrosive sulphuric acid;
when topping up with distilled water wear protective gloves and goggles. Where possible, have the above operations carried
out by qualified personnel.
Do not smoke or bring naked flames within the vicinity of the batteries to avoid explosions.

19

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Remember to have these operations carried out by specialist/authorised workshops, keeping to the specified intervals and bearing in
mind that the intervals may change depending on engine use and the
ambient conditions in which it operates.

CHANGING SWITCHABLE FUEL FILTERS WITH

ENGINE RUNNING (OPTIONAL)
Engines fitted with these filters are normally destined for continuous
use and allow fuel filters to be changed whilst the engine is running.
This operation must be carried out by workshop personnel, bearing
in mind:
1. When the engine first starts, with switch lever vertical (0), bleed
the two filters completely to ensure that complete fuelling can take
place.
2. During the operation hold the lever in one of the two horizontal
positions.
3. Before the routine filter replacement date (see "Routine Maintenance" table) switch over the circuit, turning the lever through 180.
This cuts off fuel from the clogged filter.
4. Change the clogged filter.
5. Fit the new fuel filter after filling it with fuel.
6. Bleed the fuel system (point 1).

For this purpose the injection pumps are fitted with a special speed
governor mechanical type.
The mechanical governor normally provides (ISO 3046/IV class A1)
for a 5% speed deviation between no-load and full-load.
Set out below are all the operating and maintenance instructions for
generating unit engines that diverge from the instructions for industrial engine versions.

STARTING WITH MECHANICAL GOVERNOR

STOPPING THE ENGINE

The engine reaches the calibration speed straight away (1500 or

1800 rpm).

1. Before stopping the engine, allow it to run for a few minutes, with
no load; this allows a uniform reduction in the water and oil temperature, avoiding serious damage to the engine caused by thermal
shock.
2. The engine is stopped as described below:
De-energise the fuel shut-off solenoid valve by switching off the
power to the solenoid valve (the control system depends on the
configuration of the control panel).

STARTING WITH ELECTRONIC GOVERNOR

(upon request)
The engine can be started and brought to a calibration speed other
than 1500 rpm or 1800 rpm, if requested, depending on the design
characteristics of the control panel.

Attention!
If the engine is part of a generating unit with automatic
start, starting can take place at any time. Therefore, for
the purposes of safety, refer to the recommendations indicated on
the manufacturer's documentation for the generating unit or the
complete system.

24

PRECAUTIONS FOR NORMAL ENGINE

OPERATION
The same precautions indicated in the corresponding section for industrial engines apply, apart from point "1" as specified below.
1. Apart from engines for emergency generating units, for which the
operating restrictions indicated in the commercial documentation
apply and for which electric pre-heating must be provided, it is recommended that the engine is heated with reduced loads before full
load is applied.

CHECKS AND MAINTENANCE

The same procedures apply as indicated in the corresponding industrial engine section.

GENERAL INFORMATION

STARTING

The fire pump engine is derived from an engine for industrial applications, from which it differs as regards power output and calibration
speeds.
Below are listed all the specific use and maintenance indications for
the fire pump engine that differ from those for the industrial version
of the engine.

The starting procedure (manual or automatic) may vary according to

the type of control panel fitted to the fire-fighting system or the
pump unit.
You should therefore consult the specific instruction manual.
In the case of engines cooled by water drawn from the fire-fighting
system, check that this water circulates properly through the heat
exchanger and check that the pressure is that specified by the system
manufacturer.
During periodic tests, all the engine operating parameters indicated
on the system instrument panel must be monitored.

BEFORE STARTING
Before periodic testing (weekly or in accordance with the intervals
specified in the regulation governing the fire-fighting system), carry
out the checks indicated in the section Before starting engines for
industrial applications .

IMPORTANT
To ensure easy starting, the fuel system must be free of
trapped air and full of fuel.
We also recommend that the fuel tank is always kept full in order to
ensure maximum economy and to reduce condensation.

WARNING
For engines equipped with the turbocharger protection device (Turbosafe), for the first start-up only (new engine),
start the engine and run without load at speed of ~ 1000 rpm for
approximately 5 minutes without switching it off.
This procedure serves to fill the reservoir of the turbocharger protection device with lubricating oil.
This procedure need not to be repeated at subsequent start-ups.

WARNING
If the engine is used in a fire-fighting system with an automatic start-up function, the engine may have to be started
at any time, and therefore, for reasons of safety, we advise you to
consult the documentation supplied by the system manufacturer of
the system.

27

STOPPING THE ENGINE

Before stopping the engine, disconnect the load and allow the engine
to run without load for a few minutes; this is to allow the coolant and
oil to cool down uniformly and thus avoid the possibility of serious
engine damage caused by sudden changes in temperature.

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES WHEN

ENGINE IS OUT OF COMMISSION FOR LONG
PERIODS

7. Run the engine for 15 minutes at 500- 800 rpm; at the end, using
a syringe, slowly nebulise (in about 1 minute) the following quantity
of Prot. 30/M oil in the intake manifold:

If the engine has to remain out of commission for a period of more

than 2 months, it should be protected from oxidation and faults in
the following way:

- 60 grammes in 3-4 cylinder engines

8. With the engine warm, drain the Prot. 30/M oil poured into the
sump; the oil can be reused two or three more times.
Slacken all the Vee-belts.

1. Drain the oil from the sump and refill with flushing oil (e.g. FIAT
L20 oil). This operation applies only for engines which have already
operated for more than 200 hours.

9. Detach the injection system fuel line from the tank containing the
CFB oil and reconnect it to the fuel tank.

2. Run the engine for 15 minutes at 500-800 rpm; stop the engine
and drain the oil. This operation applies only for those engines which
have already operated for more than 200 hours.

10.Seal with adhesive tape all the access, vent and bleed openings on
the engine and exhaust pipe.

3. Drain all the oil contained in the in-line injection pump.

11. Affix a clearly visible label to the engine indicating that the unit is
"WITHOUT ENGINE OIL".

4. Pour into the engine sump FIAT Prot. 30/M oil up to the "Min" level indicated on the dipstick. If Prot. 30/M oil is not available use a
brand oil which meets requirements MIL-2160B - type 2.

12.Disconnect the batteries and place them in a dry place. Keep

them charged all the time.

5. Pour Prot. 30/M oil into the in-line injection pump.

13.Drain the coolant if it does not include anti-freeze/corrosion inhibitor.

6. After loosening the fuel filters, disconnect the injection system line
up-stream the fuel pump, and connect it to a special tank containing
CFB oil (ISO 4113).

IMPORTANT - THIS TREATMENT MUST BE REPEATED EVERY 6

MONTHS.

WARNING
If fuel with a sulphur content of more than 0.5% or oil
type ACEA E2/API CF4/MILL 2104E/F is used in turbocharged engines, the engine oil change must be reduced to every 200 hours.

34

USE OF THE ENGINE OIL

For the engine to operate properly and in order to comply with the
specifications indicated in the paragraph "Capacities", the SAE viscosity of the oil used must correspond to the values indicated in relation to the outdoor temperature.

35

HANDLING THE ENGINE

DISPOSAL

If the engine is dismantled and then reassembled on the machine, the

appropriate operations must be carried out solely by authorised
workshops which are equipped with the appropriate lifting and handling equipment.
The eyes to be used to lift only the engine are indicated in this manual in the section "Engine views" and, on the engine, by special labels.
All the lifting eyes available must be used at the same time; the use

Please note that the engine and its components contain material necessary for its operation which, if dispersed in the environment, may
cause ecological damage.
The following materials must be consigned to special authorised collection centres:
- starter batteries
- used lubricating oils
- mixtures of water and anti-freeze
- filters
- auxiliary cleaning material (e.g. dirty or fuel-sodden rags)
Severe penalties are envisaged for transgressors, in accordance with
the laws in force in every country.

of just one eye is forbidden.

It is not permitted to lift the engine before removing the transmission components connected to it or other machine components supported by the engine.
The capacity and size of the engine lifting system must be adequate
for the weight and size of the engine; in particular, check that there
is no fouling between the lift system and the engine components.
It is important to use a lift balance to hold the metal lift cables parallel.

36

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY

Carbon monoxide poisoning (CO)

Any user of the machine, constructed according to safety regulations, who follows the instructions set out in this manual and complies with the instructions on the labels affixed to the engine is
working in safe conditions.
If operating mistakes cause accidents call for help immediately from
the emergency services.
In the event of an emergency, and whilst awaiting the arrival of the
emergency services, the following general advice is given for the provision of first aid.

Put out the fire using extinguishers recommended by the manufacturer of the machine or the installation..

Carbon monoxide contained in engine exhaust gases is odourless

and dangerous because it is poisonous and because, with the air, it
forms an explosive mixture.
Carbon monoxide is very dangerous in enclosed premises because it
can reach a critical concentration in a short time.
When attending a person suffering from CO poisoning in enclosed
premises, ventilate the premises immediately to reduce the gas concentration.
When accessing the premises, the person providing the aid must
hold his breath, not light flames, turn on lights or activate electric
bells or telephones so as to avoid explosions.
Take the victim to a ventilated area or into the open air, placing him
on his side if he is unconscious.

Burns

Caustic burns

Fire

1) Caustic burns to the skin are caused by acid escaping from the batteries:
- remove the clothes
- wash with running water, being careful not to affect injury-free
areas
2)Caustic burns to the eyes are caused by battery acid, lubricating oil
and diesel fuel.
- wash the eye with water for at least 20 minutes, keeping the eyelids open so that the water runs over the eyeball and moving the eye
in all directions.

1)Put out the flames on the clothing of the burns victim by means of:
- drenching with water
- use of powder extinguisher, making sure not to direct the jets
onto the face
- blankets or rolling the victim on the ground.
2)Do not pull off strips of clothing which are sticking to the skin
3)In the case of scalding with liquids, remove the soaked clothing
quickly but carefully;
4)cover the burn with a special anti-burn packet or with a sterile
bandage.

37

Electrocution
Electrocution can be caused by:
1) the engine's electrical system (12/24 V)
2) the electrical generator system (generating units)
In the first case, the low voltage does not involve high current flows
through the human body; however, if there is a short circuit, caused
by a metal tool, sparks and burns may occur.
In the second case, the high voltage causes strong currents which can
be extremely dangerous.
If this happens, break the current by operating the switch before
touching the injured person.
If this is not possible, bear in mind that any other attempt is highly
dangerous also for the person assisting; therefore, any attempt to
help the victim must be carried out without fail using means which
are insulating.

Wounds and fractures

The wide range of possible injuries and the specific nature of the help
needed means that the medical services must be called.
If the person is bleeding, compress the wound externally until help
arrives.
In the case of fracture do not move the part of the body affected by
the fracture. Move the injured person with extreme care and then
only if strictly necessary.
